Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Canons gate is in a great location for bristol and the property is nice and modern. We had the ground floor apartment and it had access to the courtyard

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

It takes a while to get a response but our issues do get resolved eventually. Our bike got stolen a couple times, along with our parcels.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

All the properties are advised at different prices, it will be good to research before moving in.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Loved the location being so close to the harbour and walking distance to the city centre. More bars and shops have opened up in the area recently.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

They can be a bit slow rectifying the issue but generally friendly and understanding.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Rent increase after a year as the price increase was a crazy % increase

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Convenient location with good links (it’s right in the city centre). But with that there were inevitably a few characters causing trouble and 2 instances of attempted bike theft because the gates were left open. All in all a good place to live.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

They responded and sorted them out but it felt like a chore for them.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

The bike storage ain’t that safe. And the boiler had a mind of its own!

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The local area is the best thing about canons gate. So much good food in a small area and lots of stuff to do.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Carpet moths and leak into flat. Other tenants would leave rubbish in the stairwell

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

There is only 1 lift which would occasionally break down for days on end

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

There are pros and cons about living in the city centre. It can get very noisy especially with weekend revellers and late night seagulls. But similarly you’re within walking distance of all the best attractions including the lovely harbour side. Nice if you want to be central but I personally prefer the suburban lifestyle.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Yes, we always got a response. Took a bit of time sometimes and but nothing catastrophic comes to mind.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I probably would have preferred to live a bit further away from Millenium Square, but very fond memories of my stay regardless.
